Early holiday PC/PS5-ready SSD all-time lows from $49: PNY 7,500MB/s, Samsung Pro, more

New lows/From $48

We are now tracking a series of notable price drops on internal SSD solutions from Samsung and PNY from $49. First up, Amazon is now offering the PNY XLR8 CS3140 1TB M.2 NVMe Gen4 x4 Internal Solid-State Drive for $99.99 shipped. This model originally launched at $230 and has regularly fetched between $150 and $125 for most of this year. Today’s deal is the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon and the best we can find. You’re looking at a notable price considering this drive can move data at up to 7,500MB/s via its NVMe PCIe Gen4 x4 interface (also backwards compatible with PCIe Gen3 x4 motherboards, at slower speeds of course). Designed for “demanding applications, high-end games, and intense workloads,” it also ships with an extended 5-year warranty. More deals and details below.
